Behind the scenes
- The title is a pun and a Mexican parody of "The Pied Piper of Hamlin" story.
- This was the first short to be written by John W. Dunn, who would go on to write many Warner Bros. animated shorts until 1965.
Everlasting Influence
- This cartoon was used in Bugs Bunny's 3rd Movie: 1001 Rabbit Tales, but only showed a few small scenes such as Sylvester doing his Pied Piper routine trick to lure the mice out, Speedy coming to save the mice and then later used the ending scene in which Bugs Bunny did narration. A bit of new animation was used in the middle of the story so that it would lead up to another Speedy cartoon, Mexican Boarders (1962).
Critical reception
- This short was nominated for an Academy Award.
